"Poet. Actor. Playwright. Theoretician. Artist. Orientalist. Surrealist. Asylum inmate. Drug addict. Electroshock recipient. Antonin Artaud. In this biography of one of the twentieth century's most enigmatic personalities and idiosyncratic thinkers, David A. Shafer takes readers on a chronological voyage through Artaud's life. Yet, as Artaud navigated through the first half of the century in the company of many of France's most influential cultural figures, his own journey was a lonely and largely isolated one, an existential ellipsis. In spite of being born into the material comfort of a bourgeois family from Marseille, Artaud in both his existence and his work uncompromisingly rejected those very bourgeois values and norms. Forsaking the renown he had garnered as a stage and film actor, theatre director and published author of The Theatre and its Double and many other writings, Artaud relentlessly challenged contemporary assumptions on the superiority of the West, the functioning of speech and the purpose of culture. In his mind, if not his deeds, he incarnated France's revolutionary tradition. Though conflicted by his inability to align his thoughts with his words, disoriented by his incessant demand for narcotics, and debilitated by increasing paranoia, Artaud channeled his intense alienation into an assault on social and cultural conventions through theatre, poetry, essays and art."--Publisher's description.

"This volume offers the first comprehensive analysis of the work of East German theatre director Fritz Bennewitz in India between 1970 and 1994. Joerg Esleben has gathered together many of Bennewitz's own writings, most published for the first time, in which he reflects on his production of plays by Bertolt Brecht, Shakespeare, Goethe, Chekhov, and Volker Braun. By translating these writings into English, the editors have provided unprecedented access to Bennewitz's thinking about intercultural work in India. This material is illuminated by explanatory annotations, contextualized commentary, and critical perspectives from Bennewitz's former colleagues in India and other leading scholars. Through its kaleidoscope of perspectives, Fritz Bennewitz in India offers a significant counter to dominant models of Western theatrical interculturalism."--
